Yes we have a reproduce script internally, however need to polish it
up and make it general usable by kernel developers.

CC Philip. It'd be helpful to give more priority to the "lkp qemu"
reproduce command.

For the warning here, it does not depend on any initrd, I just
confirmed this simple script can reproduce the problem.

#!/bin/bash

kernel=$1

kvm=(
        qemu-system-x86_64
        -enable-kvm
        -cpu Westmere
